Happy Monday to all of you...

I want to start a scale challenge...this is for all of you (including myself ) that get on that scale more then once a week...

Today I have made the challenge to myself to only get on it every Monday morning..

As of this morning my weight is 229

This is a great way to not obsess with what the scale reads through out the week if I have some challengers to do it with me

Next weigh in Monday 7/27

Any takers??

Congrats Pat! I love the way my band makes me thiink twice about picking up that cookie or donut! Great job and back in the oneseys again! :banana :banana :banana

Terrific loss Pat!!! WTG on skipping the donut-you'll do great!

That's fantastic, Pat! That beginning drop is such a boost. Lauri, 3 lbs. is awesome!

Everyone else is doing great, too! Just staying the same at this time of the year is good.

Well there is a God....

After a week in Vegas and lots of eating I still lost a pound today. Phew!!!

Had to be all the walking I did in Vegas.

So needless to say I am a very very happy man.

Go to Dr for my third Fill today at 2pm. I don't feel any restrictions now(again).

So hopefully I'll get that full feeling back again.

Well I'm editing this now as I have returned from the Dr and we agree on weight loss. But since my last visit on 11/04/04 I lost another 1 1/2 inches off waist one more inch off hips and another 1/2 inch off neck. So the one pound loss isn't so bad since the exercising is moving inches around and I can handle that.

Hi All,

FINALLY!!! I lost 2.2 lbs this week after the last two weeks of nothing. I'll take it and be happy about it. Thanks for everyones support. Teresa

Greg -you are doing a great job! Keep it up!

Teresa- 2.2 is Awesome! It feels soooo good to see the scales drop after a little stand still. I'm really proud of you. Just think of the many people GAINING this time of year.

Good job you two. It is a real acheivement to lose with all the temptations around.

No gain last week, up 3 pounds this week. Unfill, coughing croup, and zero exercise are a very bad combination. Got meds today and a cough syrup to knock me out tonight. "All I want for Christmas is a good night's sleep."

Sorry you're sick, Marie. Feel better soon.

I gained two pounds this week. How? How did that happen? I've been a good girl, I promise. But I am now fitting into a smaller size, so that's a good thing.

I haven't checked in for a long time. I think I'll come back and see you all on Monday, cuz I keep losing and gaining the same old 5 pounds. I want them to GO AWAY!

With the holidays and baking all these cookies and making candy, it has been a hard week, but this morning I am down 3 pounds. I don't know how I did that, but I will take it!

Wow that's great Betty!! I am down 1.5 this week, I wish it were more but I'll sure take it. I am just wondering when I should get a fill.

Betty and Melissa... that is an awesome accomplishment during the holidays! *applause*

I'm not going to weigh today... Aunt Flow came to visit AND I nearly ate myself out of house and home before she got here! Sooo.... my present to myself... Not to see the damage I've done! :confused:

I was hoping this fill would be my "sweet spot" ... after shoving in 2 slices of pizza in... followed by a huge slice of ice-cream cake... I'm thinking probably not! At least we had enough people over for my daughter's pre-happy-bithday celebration and there is zip cake left... WHEW!

Have a wonderful holiday week everyone!

Darcy

Way to go Betty and Melissa

Great Job, especially this time of year.

For me not weight loss, but no gain either which is a total shock since I'm not making the best of food choices right now with all the "Christmas goodies" I have been eating. Got to get back on track starting today..it's a new week!!!

Up one pound. O.K., I learned my lesson. 2 blackberry cobblers in one week is NOT a good thing. Now if I've got to get "moving".
